The Cinema Test

The Auteur

84% Knowledgeable, 88% Cultivated, 83% Experienced

Excellently done! You tested particularly high on questions relating to directors, films, and the technical aspects of cinema, earning the desirable title of The Auteur! You scored 93% in knowledge of directors, 79% in knowledge of films, and 69% in knowledge of the technical aspects of film and filmmaking.

As an auteur, you enjoy cinema and have a particular passion for great directors, whom you may well prefer to regard as the films' authors. Perhaps being familiar with the director of a film helps you to analyze the film's merits or style in a greater context. You have a considerable interest in film and aren't adverse to foreign or subtitled films, either; after all, you're generally serious when it comes to cinema.

If you happen to be a filmmaker, you may well be an auteur. As a film lover, in any case, continue cultivating your passion for cinema — your tastes in and knowledge of film culture are impressive!
